Chapter 1
Seven months pregnant. I visited a postpartum care center to make a reservation.
During the contract signing process, the staff member looked at me strangely after entering my information
“Ms. Sullivan, our system shows your husband registered with us six months ago.”
“And his spouse definitely isn’t you=”
Confused, I showed her my wedding photos with my husband Blake.
The staff member rolled her eyes and pulled up the information page. “Mr. Jerben has been married for five years and already has two children.”
“Here’s their marriage certificate and photos taken at our center”
In the photo, my husband was holding a child while standing next to a strange woman
They looked intimate and affectionate, exactly like a loving young couple.
And the man on the marriage certificate was undeniably my husband!
If they were husband and wife, then who was 1?!
“Mr. Jensen’s wife is our premium member. How shameless of you to try this scam!”
“Get out! We don’t serve disgraceful pregnant women
The receptionist looked me up and down with contempt before kicking me out without letting me explain.
By the time I came to my senses, the center had already closed its doors.
I stood there bewildered, recalling the marriage certificate and information I just seen.
It was clearly my husband’s face, his information and name, but the woman in the photo. I didn’t recognize her at all.
Why had Blake hidden the fact that he was already married?
Growing angrier by the minute, I urgently called Blake, determined to confrom him.
But the phone kept showing “temporary unavailable,” and even after sending countless messages, I received no response.
Then I remembered he was on a business trip abroad and probably busy with work.
Unable to reach Blake, I could only suppress my emotions for now, waiting for his explanation.
If I confirmed this was true, I’d make him payt
Just then, Blake finally returned. vidro call
“Babe, I was just handling soune work and didn’t have time to check your inesges.”
When the screen opened, I saw his familiar face.
Make it in his effice wearing a sharp suit, with several half finished cups of coffre still steaming beside him, seemed that he’d just flashed a meeting.
His exhausted expression imagediately made me feel sympathetic, but the memory of what I’d eat discovered brought me back to reality.

The man on screen had been smiling until a second ago, but now his face turned pale with fear
He practically dropped to his knees in front of the camera:
“Babe, I don’t! I only love you!”
“There’s never been anyone else but you!”
Warried I’d misunderstand, he frantically showed me his entire office to prove there wasn’t a trace of any woman’s belongings.
“Who’s been saying bad things about me??”
“Is it some media rumor? When I get back. I’ll make them pay!”
|| “Babe, you have to believe me, I’ll only ever love you“”
Seeing his pale face and flustered behavior helped ease my tension.
Blake and I were college classmates. He fell for me at first sight and secretly loved me for two years before finally gathering the courage to confess.
That day, he held a huge bouquet of roses in front of me, stumbling over his words and making a lovable fool of himself.
Though the man had an elegant,
face, he was incredibly shy and awkward
This stark contrast made me increasingly curious about him.
After observing him for six months, I gradually fell for him and finally chose to be with him.
To give me a better life, he started his own business after graduation.
In just two years, he steadily built the company up, never complaining about the hardships.
And when he became successful, he offered all his s
shares as a betrothal gift to me.
I still remember the scene when he proposed. Standing in the moonlight, he solemnly vowed:
“I’ll only ever commit to you in this lifetime. All my money is yours.”
“If I ever betray you, you can kick me out penniless,”
He offered everything he had with both hands, proving his sincerity.
In that moment, I knew he was the one worth entrusting my life to.
After marriage, he was even more attentive. He handled all household matter big and small.
All our friends knew Blake was obsessed with spoiling his wife, always hometore seven.
How could someone who loved me so deeply possibly have another family?
Thinking about this, my doubts began to fade:
“Alright, I’ll trust you this once, but if I find out you’ve been playing around and my back, you’re dead
Duly after his repeated assurances did I end the call satisfied.
After hanging up, the weight lifted from my
and I was about to look for another pustpartum center,
Suddenly. I received a call from Blake’s assistant. The person in charge of the company’s new product launch had been in an accident on the way to the
Now the company was in chaos with no one to lead.
The assistant couldn’t teach Blake, so she endled me for help.
This launch was a critical turning point in our conipiany’s transformation and buldn’t afford any mural

After careful consideration, I decided to go to the company myself to resolve the immediate crisi:
Two hours later, I arrived at the company right on time.
The media was ready, but with no one to host the event, the assistant looked at me like I was her savior.
I told her to go to the hospital to check on the injured employee first, making sure they were okay before returning.
After she left, I composed myself, walked into the conference hall and prepared for the press conference.
As soon as I entered the meeting room, several executives exchanged whispers upon seeing me
I assumed they hadn’t met me before, so I smiled and greeted them, but they surprisingly backed away in fear.
Ignoring this. Lexplained who I was and was about to announce the start of the launch
Suddenly, there was a commotion as a woman stood up from the audience.
She pulled out a marriage certificate and waved it at the cameras.
“Miss, you claim to be the CEO’s wife, so what does that make me?”
